The resort's 88 rooms and 34 pool villas open onto a glistening beachfront, just north of Chaweng Beach in the north-eastern corner of the island. Surrounded by tropical gardens, the interiors feature contemporary Sino-Thai design inspired by the Chinese merchants that once settled in the area.

Dining at the Anantara Lawana is a particularly special experience. Guests can enjoy the culinary delights of fine Thai food in one of seven private salas that stand on stilts and look out over the ocean. The luxury spa offers both traditional Thai and classic international treatments, while a library can provide guests with more entertainment. Residents can also enjoy a host of water sports available, including yachting. The resort is a few minutes from Chaweng town centre, close to local shopping amenities and teaming with nightlife.
